One of the problems, in my opinion, with *some* theists, is group think. I would never join and atheist group as I am sure it would devolve into the same sort of thing.
Well...my vision....No theists, the weekly talk could be about furthering science and truth, in our modern life. The "group-think" could be about the importance of accepting reality of this life now... doing what you can to help make it better, for yourself and others. I wouldn't mind that.....and it would be good for my kids! Life's too short to miss out on things like that, imo.
Personally, I find practising atheism to be lonely. That is the only drawback. I like a group (positive) experience.....there's strength and fun in numbers....oh well....just a thought.....
